Chapter 21: When I'm With You

NANA'S POV

"You'll end your game Nana." Itinutok niya sa akin yung isang 4-inch avila gun. I came back into my senses.

"No."I whispered.

I stepped backward.

Stepped back.

"Ikamusta mo na lang ako sa pinakamamahal mong kapatid, Nana." He grinned. Papalapit na ng palapit ang pagtutok niya ng baril sa noo ko.

"Bitawan mo yan." Nanghihina kong sabi.

"No, I won't." He grinned.

Stepped back..

Bang! Bang!

That's the last sound I heard before I went to nowhere. Two shots. Where am I? The huge glass window was shot for the second gunshot. The cold water covering my weak body.

Where am I?

My eyes still close. I lost my energy physically and emotionally. I can hardly breathe. I don't wanna see what the world is waiting for me if I open my eyes.

Am I still alive?

Am I shot?

The water is cold and shivering my body. I can feel it. I can feel the pain at my right shoulder.

The Swiss knife..

I move my left hand to pull out the Swiss knife stabbed in my shoulder. I can't feel any pain rather than this. I hold the knife to slowly pull it out but I feel the handle is totally deformed. It was not like this before.

FLASHBACK

"Surprise! Happy birthday!!" Ate Chanel kissed my cheek and hugged me at the back. She's very sweet. She surprised me a visit in my school.

"Thank you.l. Why you're here Ate? Wala ka ng class?"

"I sneaked out to greet my little baby Yanna! Alis ko 1pm, 3 days OJT alam mo na, sissy!" She smiled. Nursing kasi siya. Wala parents ko dito nasa New Hudson for work so every birthdays, Ate and I are celebrating it.

"Thank you so much, I'll miss you." I was so touched. I hugged her.

"Hey, don't cry baby. Bawi ako pagbalik. Okay?" Binuksan niya yung bag niya.

"Tadaaah!! For my cutie sister." She never fails to give me gift every birthdays.

"What's this, Ate? 'Di ba sabi ko sa'yo, okay lang na 'wag ka nang mag-gift saken." I wiped my tears.

I pulled out the ribbon and opened the small box. What's this??

A Swiss knife?

So cool! May naka-engraved pa sa holder.

"yanNEL"

"Like it??"Chanel said smiling.

"This is so cool , Ate! Thank you talaga!"

"Only two in the world owns this kinda knife, sis." She raised her knife too. She held both of my hands and looked at me.

"Keep this Swiss knife Yanna, you'll never know someday it will protect life."

END OF FLASHBACK

I opened my eyes. It's dim and blurred. I fell in the cold infinity pool of Collins Hotel. How lucky I was. I pressed the deformed Swiss knife holder.
